The Bousch Family Cemetery is located on the grounds of what is
now called the Lynnhaven House, off Wishart Road in Virginia Beach, VA. The Lynnhaven
House is a circa 1725 home built by Francis Thelaball II. The
historic structure is currently owned by the City of Virginia Beach and is open to the public. The
structure was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1969. Costumed docents
provide tours, historical information, cultivate in eighteenth century fashion,
and provide demonstrations of household skills. It is a favorite field
trip event for local elementary school children. The cemetery sits in a
wooded area to the South of the house and is normally included in the
tour.
